.bcn explained

.bcn is a generic top-level domain for the city of Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain.^[1]

According to the Barcelona City Council, the .bcn domain is intended to maintain a relationship of "cooperation and sum of efforts" with the .cat domain, even though the proposal has already received the criticisms of the Generalitat de Catalunya^{[2] [3]} and of several personalities from the cultural and technological world of Catalonia.^[4]

Another generic top-level domain for Barcelona is .barcelona.^[5]
